What to Expect

Dental contouring and bonding is performed in DentalWorks - Louisville - Cedar Springs's dental practice and is typically pain-free so it does not require numbing or sedation. To make the tooth and get it ready for proper bonding, our dentists will scrape the top layer of the tooth and put on a conditioning gel. Before it is applied, the resin is prepared to match the patient's natural tooth whiteness and then carefully painted onto the enamel. A special light is aimed at the teeth to harden and set the resin until the resin completely covers the treated area. After this process, our dentists will buff and smooth the surface of the tooth to make certain the bonded teeth are level. The natural teeth can also be polished with polishing instruments to take away sharp edges.

Treatment Aftercare

Clients at DentalWorks - Louisville - Cedar Springs may find that their finished bonded and contoured teeth feel funny at first, but patients gradually get used to how they look and feel. To take care of dental bonding, our patients should make ongoing dental check-ups with our dentists. Proceeding your bonding treatment, patients will need to avoid dark liquids and staining foods, as well as tobacco products and grinding their teeth to avoid wear. With a proactive dental care approach, bonding and contouring can last for a number of years before another bonding and contouring treatment is needed.
